Did you know that the Brinkman Ranch located at Preston and Main

@Tamara: yep I did. I love driving by and seeing the cows. It will be a sad day when they end up selling the final parts of the land.

Yes and it will be so sad when that corner of land with the cattle gets built out

@Tamara :

@Tippi: @Jjj: I've got to check out the Frisco History book for sure. So many interesting things I am learning that I really had no idea of! I sure miss seeing the cattle and horses at that ranch!

Get the book entitled "Cutter Frisco: Growing Up on the Original Southfork Ranch" - by Douglas D. Box. You'll get all the fascinating history and fun facts about the ranch before it was sold to Brinkman. It's at the Frisco library or get it on Amazon. You'll love it!
My heart breaks each time I drive past the ranch - knowing the final acreage will one day be gone. Why can't Frisco retain at least a tiny portion of its farming/ranching history?

@funacct :
I still see the longhorns grazing. Like you, I love seeing them.

@Tippi : @Tamara : @funacct : @Stellenator : I joke with my wife that those cows have no idea they're munching on some of the most expensive pasture grass in all of Texas... ; ) With the value of that land, I'm surprised they've held out so long.

@Tippi: I so agree!!! I love the range and grass in the middle of town!! Not a fan at all of concrete and we will have acres more of it!

I love the grass and the ranch.

@Tamara: I am looking forward to Grand Park and the big one coming soon on Teel north of Eldorado to see the green glass

@Jjj: that is so true!

@Tamara :
I had never heard of Southfork Ranch in Parker until this past spring when my daughter had a banquet there. It was super fancy and nice venue (food was good too)

@Tamara :
The horses are still there. They have their private house on main just beyond the track towards Preston.

@James: I did see a couple of steer recently and loved that sight!

@Tippi: I agree with you so much!! We are in TEXAS not Europe or Hollywood and builders seem to be replicating other desirable places here but what about Texas for who we are and we're. The ranch kept it home!
